- Does anyone know where the DDE Pascal compiler, which Acorn kindly released
- to the Newcastle server, originally came from. I thought I remembered seeing
- somewhere that the C, pascal and Fortran compilers for RISCiX were all based
- on the Norcroft code generator. So is the RISC OS DDE pascal a port of the
- RISCiX compiler?
-
- Secondly, if this is so, is there any chance the Fortran compiler might also
- be ported? (as a commercial product or otherwise). It would certainly be
- nice to have available an updated Fortran compiler, to run under DDE and
- with support for DDT - maybe even making it possible to cross-link Fortran,
- pascal and C program segments?
